UK-Pound Sign vs Euro Currency Sign

[Dennis-Brouwer]

Hello,

 

I am a new user to FM Starting Point but its a great tool! However I do have 1 question; How can I change the Currency signs through-out the application at once from UK-Pound into Euro or from US-Dollar into Euro. Is there an easy way to do it or do i have to open every template and interface to change the field behind it?

Thanks for the help!

Hi Dennis,

 

Yes, sorry.  There is no single button that does that.  At one point we had played with this idea, but its not workable...and its one area that FileMaker doesn't give us the programing flexibility.

 

It does a lot... but there are limits.

 

Every field that has a currency needs to hand tweaked in Layout Mode.

 

Here is a video that walks you through it:
